The cough as one of the main symptoms of respiratory infections in the most cases is carried out in children and adults using preparations without a prescription (OTC--over-the-counter) and cold medications (CCMs). Their efficacy and safety have not been fully confirmed. In turn, the administration of drugs that inhibit cough by acting on the central nervous system requires adherence to dosage. Codeine as the main standard of the cough suppressants is not always effective. Used for many years butamyrate citrate is highly effective and complete safety. The number and quality of the side effects after application of this preparation is small and is not limited especially in pediatrics. Conducted research on new drugs that inhibit cough are very promising.
